It might look like a sleeper but I have a feeling it won't sound like one.

Here is a sneak peek of some of what we have been working on. This just executed a 10-12G 40 mph turn.

That looks like a little Mystic or MTI. That is an amazing car you are building.

Everything seems so mundane around here when speedster isn't around...








(I yawned at least 5 times while making this post!)

Uh................... did we just gloss over outside, real world pics of the SST?

OMGWTFBBQ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Darth_Emma]

My bad!

But, I want a progress report!

(and you gotta admit, that yawning kitteh is damn cute!)

LOL

Where are these pics taken? Is it done? Have there been test and tunes? Is the car running good? Are there time slips? :upset:

I took the photos at turbonetics (they manufactured the turbos for the car) open house, (bumblebee was there also) My friend Orange Krate said the car was trailered in because of the lack of a transmission, the car is fully caged I think the tranny is the last piece of the puzzle.

Wow !!!

Thanks for posting the pics Blade... First time I have seen it out too. Thanks again for posting. Did they open up the trunk so you could see the fuel cells and stuff ? Did you get to check out the cage, harnesses and tubs? Also, that is the factory 'sleeper' look with the rims and tires. The Forgelines and 345s kind of give it away a little when mounted.

And yes, it literally is just waiting for the tranny but it is ready to rumble. While back at the tranny shop Bowler made some updates to match the high boost curve.

Sorry I have not posted in a while - you know the way vacation can be - have been on boats most of the time here so haven't logged in here for a bit.

Glad to see that at least the SST made it out into the sun. It hasn't seen much daylight in 2 years. Also that is still the factory paint. Once it comes back to FL, there is something fairly 'cool' planned for the paint, but that may wait until winter.

Time to drive the SST when it comes home.

Ha R! No glossing. Just the 'Stealth' portion of the SST name...
